<br />THE CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH <br />PROJECT NO. 21-1011 <br />BUILDING DEPARTMENT RELOCATION TO ANNEX <br /> <br /> <br />Project No. 21-1011 November 2024 025770 -4 <br />H. Applicators shall be mobile and maneuverable to the extent that straight lines can be <br />followed, and normal curves can be made in a true arc. The applicator equipment to be used <br />on roadway installations shall consist of either hand equipment or truck mounted <br />units depending on the type of marking required. <br />I. The hand applicator equipment shall be insulated, have sufficient capacity to hold 150 <br />pounds of molten material, and be sufficiently maneuverable to install crosswalks; lane, <br />edge and center lines; arrows and legends. <br />J. The truck mounted unit for lane, edge and center lines shall consist of a mobile self- <br />contained unit carrying its own material capable of operating at a minimum speed of five <br />miles per hour while installing striping. <br />K. Application time, weather limitations and surface preparation shall be in accordance with <br />FDOT Specifications Sections 710-4, 710-5 and 710-8. In accordance with FDOT <br />requirements, asphalt shall be in place for 30 days before application of <br />thermoplastic stripe. <br />L. The material, when formed into traffic stripes or other markings, shall be readily renewable <br />by placing an overlay of new material directly over an old line of compatible material in such <br />a manner that no splitting or separation takes place. <br />M. The application temperature shall be within the range specified by the manufacturer of the <br />thermoplastic compound being used. <br />N. All pavement edge lines, gore, island and diagonal strip markings, bike lane symbols and <br />messages, wherever located, shall have a minimum thickness of 0.060 inch at the edges and <br />a maximum thickness of 0.120 inch at the center. A minimum average film thickness <br />of 0.060 inch shall be maintained. All lane lines, center lines, transverse markings (except <br />shoulder markings) and pavement markings within traffic wearing area (such as dotted <br />turning guidelines) shall have a minimum thickness of 0.090 inch at the edges and a <br />maximum thickness of 0.188 inch at the center. A minimum average film thickness of 0.090 <br />shall be maintained. All thickness measurements shall be an average in any 3-foot <br />length. <br />O. The glass sphere top coating shall be applied by a type of glass sphere dispenser or gun <br />which will embed the spheres into the line surface to at least one-half their diameter. The <br />glass sphere top coating shall not incur more than a 10 percent loss during the first 30 days <br />of traffic exposure. <br />P. Reflective pavement markers shall be installed as they existed before the repair. They shall <br />be replaced with the appropriate color or colors and oriented in the correct direction <br />as specified in Section 706 of the FDOT Specifications. Paving markings for this Project <br />shall conform to the Florida Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Road <br />and Bridge Construction, as revised by the governing agency. <br />3.3 FABRICATION <br /> <br />A. Preparation of sign blanks and fabrication of reflectorized faces shall conform to the <br />applicable requirements of FDOT Sections 700-4 and 700-5. <br /> <br /> <br />END OF SECTION
